Pushing Forward Pareto Frontiers of Proactive Agents with Behavioral Agentic Optimization

arXiv:2602. 11351v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Proactive large language model (LLM) agents aim to actively plan, query, and interact over multiple turns, enabling efficient task completion beyond passive instruction following and making them essential for real-world, user-centric applications.

When Does Overlap Help? OSU-Mem and a Cell-Conditional Analysis of Trajectory Memory for LLM Agents

arXiv:2606. 28376v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Long-horizon large language model (LLM) agents accumulate interaction trajectories that quickly exceed any practical prompt budget, and existing memory methods either truncate aggressively and lose non-local evidence or retain boilerplate that degrades decision quality.

COHORT: Collaborative Orchestration for Hardening via Offensive Replay on Emulated Topologies

arXiv:2606. 30479v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Mitigating an observed adversary in an enterprise network typically takes weeks of expert work: an analyst derives a mitigation tailored to that adversary, validates it without breaking production, and verifies it disrupts the specific attack.
